- B62K2201/06—Leaf springs
Definitions
- the invention relates to a bicycle fork, which is particularly suitable for racing bikes and triathlons but also trekking or city bikes. Furthermore, the invention relates to a bicycle frame.
- a fork with two-legged legs known.
- a front part of the respective fork legs is connected via a plurality of linear leaf springs with a rear part of the respective fork legs.
- the two in the direction of travel rear parts of the Fork legs carry the front wheel axle.
- the two fork parts connected to one another via a plurality of leaf springs run essentially parallel to one another.
- Such a construction is not suitable in particular for road bikes and triathlon wheels, in particular due to the weight of the bicycle fork.
- this construction has the disadvantage that relatively short leaf springs are used.
- the springs used must not be too soft due to the required stiffness required. In order to realize the travel with hard torsion-resistant springs, but they must have a certain length. This is with the in WO 2013/046236 described construction only partially possible.
- EP 2 332 816 a front fork for bicycles known in which the fork legs are also formed in two parts. Elastomeric elements are provided between the two parts of the fork legs, which are also essentially parallel to one another, so that the two parts of the fork legs can be displaced relative to one another in the longitudinal direction by a certain range. Since the two fork parts must be made parallel to each other over as long a length as possible, the fork has a relatively high weight. Furthermore, the provision of elastomers has the disadvantage that their properties are non-directional. This leads to an undesirable tilting movement of the tire. To keep this tilting movement as low as possible, only a very small vertical spring travel can be realized. Furthermore, an adjustment of the spring properties is not possible, so that, for example, depending on the body weight different forks would have to be kept.
- the rear triangle typically comprises two chain stays connected to a main frame element in the area of the bottom bracket receptacle and two seat stays.
- the saddle struts are directly or indirectly connected to the rearward facing ends of the chain stays.
- the dropout is formed, which is the Rear hub carries.
- the chain stays usually lead from the dropout obliquely upwards in the direction of the seat tube and are connected for example via a rocker or the like to the seat tube.
- the suspension of the rear end then takes place via a spring-damping element with linear damper and possibly a coil spring.
- This spring-damping element is arranged between the rear frame and the main frame member.
- the main frame member typically includes a top tube, a down tube and a seat tube. Such sprung rear end frames are not suitable for racing bikes due to the high weight.
- the object of the invention is to provide a bicycle fork, in particular a front bicycle fork, which is preferably suitable for use in racing bikes, triathlons and the like and has good damping properties, in particular of smaller impacts and vibrations.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a bicycle frame for a road bike, triathlon wheels or the like, which improves the damping properties of the rear end while maintaining a low frame weight.
- the object is achieved according to the invention in a bicycle fork, in particular a front bicycle fork by the features of claim 1 and in a bicycle frame by the features of claim 12th
- the bicycle fork according to the invention which is in particular a front bicycle fork, is particularly suitable for racing bikes and triathlon bikes, but also for trekking and city bikes.
- the bicycle fork preferably has a steerer, which is connected via a fork bridge with two fork legs.
- the steerer, the fork bridge and the fork legs are preferably formed in one piece.
- it is a component made of fiber-reinforced plastic, in particular CFRP.
- the inventive Bicycle fork on two swing elements.
- each rocker element is connected to one of the two fork legs.
- the swinging element serves to receive the wheel axle.
- the bicycle fork according to the invention has a spring element.
- the at least one spring element is arranged between one of the rocker elements and one of the fork legs.
- At least one of the fork legs is thus connected on the one hand to a rocker element and on the other hand to a spring element which is arranged between the two components.
- a spring element which is arranged between the two components.
- two spring elements are provided so that both swing elements are connected via the spring element with the associated fork leg.
- the spring element according to the invention is a curved leaf spring.
- the curvature of the leaf spring is formed in the longitudinal direction of the leaf spring.
- Such a spring element which preferably consists of a single leaf spring or possibly a plurality of particular superimposed individual leaf spring elements, can realize a good damping characteristic with low weight of the bicycle fork.
- the curvature of the at least one leaf spring is preferably in the direction of the fork leg and / or the rocker.
- the center of the radius of curvature is thus on the side facing away from the fork leg or the rocker side of the leaf spring.
- the two rocker element are each connected via a joint with the respective fork leg.
- the joint is a pivot joint, which in particular is pivotable about only one axis. This axle is preferably horizontally aligned when the front fork is installed.
- the pivot joint may preferably have sliding or a roller bearing.
- the at least one leaf spring is therefore curved in a preferred embodiment in the direction of the pivot joint.
- each fork has a corresponding spring contact surface.
- part of the leaf spring abuts. This increases the progression of the leaf spring, since the length of the leaf spring in engagement is shortened. With the same spring cross-section and modulus of elasticity, the spring force increases.
- the at least one leaf spring is connected in the region of a free end of the rocker element with this.
- the arrangement of the leaf spring is optimized.
- At least one end of the at least one leaf spring in different positions with the wishbone or the swing element is connectable.
- the at least one end of the at least one leaf spring can be fixed, for example, to a plurality of receptacles such as bores, clamps or other tensioning devices in different positions.
- the at least one receptacle for an end of the at least one leaf spring is formed as a slot or groove. In this respect, a stepless change of position and thus a stepless adjustment of the spring characteristic is possible.
- a connection between the end of the leaf spring and the fork leg or the swing element can also be done by means of a clamp.
- Such a clamp surrounds the fork leg or the swing element at least partially.
- the fixing of the clamp can be done via a clamping element such as a screw or locking element.
- the provision of a clamp has the particular advantage that by simply moving a fastening of the spring element in different positions without steps is possible. Thus, thereby a stepless adjustment of the spring characteristic is possible.
- the swinging elements point in the direction of travel. It is thus in this embodiment, a pushed rocker.
- this embodiment of the bicycle fork according to the invention has the advantage that the compression direction corresponds to the impact direction.
- the achievable travel is the bicycle fork according to the invention with spring element preferably in the range of 5 - 20 mm. In particular, spring travel of 7 - 15 mm realized.
- the bicycle fork according to the invention has a brake caliper receptacle, so that a disc brake can be provided.
- the brake caliper receptacle can be arranged on one of the rocker elements or on one of the struts, wherein the saddle mount is formed in particular in one piece with the corresponding component.
- the leaf spring may be made of a metal. It is preferred that the leaf spring has or is made of a fiber-plastic composite.
- the bicycle fork according to the invention has the particular advantage that it has a very fine response and an associated low breakaway torque. This is due in particular to the fact that the unsprung mass, for example compared to EP 2 332 816 , is lower. This makes it possible to greatly reduce the vibrations that occur on uneven ground. This in turn means that the arm musculature fatigues slower, and thus increases the performance, especially in professional athletes.
- the above bicycle fork which is described with reference to a front bicycle fork, can be provided accordingly also in a fork for the rear wheel or a rear triangle.
- a rear triangle usually has two chain stays, which are connected to a seat tube and / or a bottom bracket.
- the chain stays may also be connected to the down tube of a main frame member.

- the at least one chain stay in a preferred embodiment has a hinge, wherein the at least one leaf spring bridges the area of the hinge, i. on the one hand connected to the swinging element and on the other hand to the chainstay.
- a suitably trained bicycle fork can also be formed by the saddle struts.
- the saddle struts which extend from the region of the reception of the rear wheel axle in the direction of the seat tube, have at least one rocker element in this embodiment.
- This is in turn in a preferred embodiment hingedly connected to the at least one seat post.
- One end of the leaf spring is connected to the rocker element and the other end of the leaf spring to the corresponding seat post.
- a single seat post may be provided, wherein it is preferred that two seated sprung struts according to the invention are provided.
- the two embodiments of the rear fork are preferably described as described above with reference to the front fork, advantageously further developed.
- Another invention independent of the bicycle fork relates to a bicycle frame.
- This has a main frame member with in particular a top tube, a down tube and a seat post.
- the main frame member is connected to a rear triangle, which serves to receive a rear hub or rear axle.
- the bicycle frame is in particular a bicycle frame for racing bikes and triathlon wheels, which are correspondingly lightweight.
- at least one spring element is nevertheless arranged between the rear frame and the main frame element.
- the spring element according to the invention is an in particular curved leaf spring.
- a first end of the leaf spring is connected to a seat tube of the main frame element.
- the connection is in this case in particular with a rear side of the seatpost tube, that is, a rearwardly facing in the direction of travel side of the seat tube.
- a second end of the leaf spring is connected to a seat post of the rear end.
- an immediate connection between the second end of the leaf spring and one of the preferably two seat stays may be provided. If two seat stays are provided, it is preferred that these are connected to one another via a connecting element, so that the two seat stays together with the connecting element in particular have a U-shaped cross-section.
- the second end of the leaf spring is connected to the connecting element.
- a central central connection is possible.
- the connection of the second end of the leaf spring with the connecting element takes place in a direction of travel behind the seat tube arranged region of the connecting element.
- the at least one leaf spring may also be connected to one or both chain stays.
- the at least one leaf spring may also be connected to one or both chain stays.
- two leaf springs are provided, or a leaf spring is Y-shaped, so that the two arms each form a second end, which is respectively connected to one of the two chain stays.
- sprung bicycle frame of the rear triangle is connected to the main frame member via at least one joint, in particular a pivot joint.
- This joint is integrated in a preferred embodiment in the seat tube or connected thereto.
- the joint may represent a connection between the at least one seat post or the connecting element and the main frame element or even a connection between the at least one chain stay and the main frame element.
- a transmission element is provided, which constitutes the connection to the joint. It is particularly preferred that the transmission element is guided through an opening in the seat tube and then is connected within the seat tube with the joint.
- the transmission element is preferably angled or curved and preferably runs partially within the seatpost tube.
- a corresponding transmission element can of course also be connected to one or both chain stays or a connecting element connecting the two chain stays.
- the frame members such as the seat stays and the chain stays made of a fiber composite material such as carbon fiber
- the leaf spring is preferably curved in the direction of the seat tube, in particular a curvature takes place in the direction of the joint, if this is provided.
- this embodiment also has, as described above with reference to the fork spring, preferably a spring contact surface. This is formed in a preferred embodiment by a rearward facing in the direction of travel rear of the seat tube.
- the spring characteristic of the leaf spring can be adjusted. This is possible by connecting the leaf spring in different positions with the seat tube, the at least one seat post, the at least one chain stay and / or the corresponding connecting element.
- different receptacles may be provided for fixing at least one of the two ends of the leaf spring in different positions. It is also possible to provide one or more clamps, as described with reference to the bicycle fork, wherein the clamp at least partially encloses the at least one seat post, which at least one chain stay and / or the corresponding connecting element.
- the suspension of the rear end according to the invention causes in a preferred embodiment a travel of 5 to 20 mm, in particular 7 to 15 mm.
- the front fork 10 which is particularly suitable for a road bike or triathlon, has a steerer tube 12 which is rotatably mounted in a fork tube 14 of the bicycle frame and with a not shown Bicycle handlebar is connected. Furthermore, the bicycle fork 10 has two via a fork bridge 16 (FIG. FIG. 3 ) connected to each other fork legs 18.
- the dropout of the fork legs is not formed directly for receiving the bicycle axle. Rather, the two fork legs 18 are each connected via a pivot joint 20 each having a rocker element 22 in the illustrated embodiment. At a free or in the direction of travel 24 forwardly facing end of the swing members 22 is for receiving the wheel axle, for example, an opening 26 (FIG. FIG. 2 ) or a corresponding slot-shaped recess, as in conventional dropouts of bicycle forks provided.
- the two fork legs 18 are connected to one another in each case via a spring element designed as a leaf spring 28.
- the two leaf springs 28 are curved in the direction of the respective fork leg 18 or the swinging element 22 and in the direction of the pivot joint 20.
- the clamps 30 may in this case preferably be moved in the longitudinal direction of the corresponding leg 18 and the rocker element 22.
- only one of the two clamps 30 is displaceable. By displacing at least one of the two clamps 30, the effective length of the leaf spring can be changed and thus the spring characteristic can be adjusted. This is the step-free possible in the provision of such clamps 30.
- the arrangement of the leaf spring 28 can be seen such that a rear side of the leaf springs 28 which points in the direction of the fork legs 18 rests against a spring contact surface 32 at least in the spring-loaded state.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 a preferred embodiment of a bicycle fork is shown, which basically with the in FIG. 1 corresponds to the schematic representation shown. Identical or similar components are therefore identified by the same reference numerals.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrated bicycle fork The main difference of in FIGS. 2 and 3 illustrated bicycle fork is that the two ends of the leaf spring 28 are connected with fixing elements 36.
- the two fixing elements 36 have pin-like projections 38 which are each guided in a slot 40 and 42, respectively.
- a simple displacement of the fixing elements 36 in the slots 40 and 42 is possible.
- elements, not shown, such as screws, locking elements or the like By holding elements, not shown, such as screws, locking elements or the like, a fixing of the fixing elements 36 can be carried out at different positions. This in turn makes it possible to adjust the spring characteristic.
- fixing can thereby already be sufficiently realized that the located above the pin 38 of the part located in the fork leg 18 slot 40 is closed with a holding element or stop element. Due to the spring force, the pin 38 presses against this stop element, so that a fixing of the fixing element 36 and thus a defined position of the leaf spring 28 is realized.
- a front bicycle fork can be designed accordingly for a rear wheel.
- the front bicycle fork for example, two saddle struts, which are each formed in two parts and a corresponding rocker element 22, a corresponding leaf spring 28, etc. have.
- the saddle struts directly with a seat tube or similar
- the fork bridge should be connected to each other in order to be connected to the seatpost tube.
- a correspondingly configured bicycle fork can also be designed in the area of the chain stays.
- the two chain stays can be connected to each other via a connecting element, similar to a fork bridge or, for example, be connected directly to the main frame element, in particular in the area of the bottom bracket.
- FIG. 4 shows a seat post 50 of a main frame member.
- the seat tube is usually connected to a top tube and optionally via a bottom bracket with a down tube.
- Two saddle struts 52 form part of a rear triangle.
- the saddle struts 52 are usually connected in the region of dropouts with chain stays.
- the dropouts serve to accommodate the rear hub or rear axle.
- the chain stays are then articulated or firmly connected to the main frame member, in particular in the area of the bottom bracket.
- a particular curved leaf spring 54 is provided.
- the leaf spring 54 is fixedly connected to a back 56 of the seat post 50.
- the connection takes place here, for example, by a screw, wherein the exact position of the screw in a slot 58 is variable.
- a first end 60 of the leaf spring 58 is thus variably connected to the seatpost tube 50 in the illustrated embodiment.
- a second end 62 of the leaf spring 54 is indirectly connected in the illustrated embodiment with the two saddle struts 52.
- the connection for example, likewise made by screwing takes place on a connection element 64 connecting the two seat stays 52 with each other.
- the second end 62 of the leaf spring 54 can also have a slot, so that the fixing in different positions is possible.
- a joint 66 is additionally provided, which is in particular a pivot joint.
- the joint 66 is integrated into the seatpost tube 50.
- the joint 66 is connected on the one hand with the seatpost tube 50 and on the other hand indirectly with the saddle struts 52.
- a transmission element 68 is provided, which is connected to the connecting element 64 and in particular formed in one piece.
- the transmission element 68 is in this case preferably angled or curved and guided through an opening 70 on the back 56 of the seat post 50.
- the opening 70 is in this case preferably sealed with a plastic element. A part of the transmission element 68 thus runs inside the seatpost 50.
- the back 56 of the seatpost 50 is in a region above the first end 60 of the leaf spring 54 (FIG. FIG. 4 ) in such a way that a spring abutment surface 72 is thereby formed, which has the same function as the spring abutment surface 32 (FIG. Figure 1 to 3 ) having.
